A and started a business investing amounts of ₹92,500 and ₹1,12.500, respectively. If B’s share in the profit earned by them is ₹9,000, what is the profit (in ₹ )earned by A?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Let the profit earned by A= Rs. X
According to the question,
\(\frac{92500}{112500}\) = \(\frac{X}{9000}\)
X = \(\frac{92500 × 9000 }{112500}\)
X = 37 × 200
X = 7400
So , The profit earned by A = Rs. 7400
